#Sharks 🦈

There seems to be a lot of commotion in the media right now about shark attacks.

Just a gentle reminder that we’re almost 20 times more likely to be killed by lightning strike than unprovoked shark attack.

Footnote…
# of fatalities in the US in 2022:
guns = >20,000
lightning strikes = 19
shark attack = 1

My son has EV hybrid. He recently drove from Philadelphia to Detroit on a single tank of gas.

@cassandra17lina yes, I fear the EV gouging will be bad unless there is intervention. But thanks for considering EVs (I bought my two years ago, batteries are still amazingly near new capacity, and NO expensive repairs, oil changes, radiator leaks, etc!)

I have mini meltdowns of crying or raging. I'll withdraw and become robotic.
The most terrifying for my family is what I call my kill switch.
I will walk to a place where I can lie down, do so, and fall asleep in a split second and a bomb could go off and I Will. Not. Wake. Up.
My family, this household, has experienced it three times and after the first time I had to explain to just check for breathing and I am sorry.
In these cases I will sleep at least 13 hours.

Inflation is cooling. That’s bad news for the GOP https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/inflation-cooling-good-americans-bad-republicans-rcna93880

If Senator Tubesteak was holding up Oil Executive promotions or Football Coach hirings, you'd see Republicans taking him around behind the barn for some corrective action real damn quick.

But, the military?

Weird silence from the party who claims to "support the troops."

#Politics Idaho red state

State opts out of nearly $15M to feed children this summer
Unclear who ultimately decided to reject federal funding and why!

So wrong the republicans show once again how mean and against any benefit for the citizens of Idaho. wake up! vote blue!

My grandfather's extended family died in Auschwitz, and in the USSR, even though he was a highly respected Academic and a renowned linguist, he was ostracised by some of his peers. He was often reported for 'misconduct' purely because he was Jewish. Regardless, he managed to retain his position as a Dean at a prestigious university up until his death in 1986.

AI could wreak havoc on elections. Congress can get ahead of it.

To all the crypto and other investment scammers I get DMs from.
Please stop.
I think it's pretty clear I know what I'm doing when it comes to investing:

The people cheering this merger can go fuck themselves.

Third party developers spent the last couple of decades carrying Microsoft and Sony.

Buying them out to make exclusive content for Xbox and PlayStation is beyond scummy.

Corporate buyouts don't benefit anyone but rich executives.

I just want someone to explain why indicted criminals are allowed to run for the highest office in our country. Or for that matter, why right-wing extremists can hold any office. This country is set up to fail. Once people that do not respect truth, justice and equality take over, we become a fascist terrorist criminal ran country. Which we are rapidly running towards. Quit electing criminals.
Get an education.
If you don't understand the issues, don't vote.

Gosh yesterday was disappointing by my #FreoDockers. It's not the loss so much as the lack of effort most of the game.

I firmly believe our main problem is between the ears. Need some psych sessions for the boys to help them cope with the pressure of expectations.

It would be especially hard in a place like WA where there is such acute scrutiny.

I'm getting fired.

Soooo I signed up for Threads one day, and deactivated my account the next with regrets for ever having signed up. Oh well. I hardly use my Instagram anymore anyway, except to keep up with other accounts.

I tried Spoutible but I just can't. It's slow and hard to follow and hard to find any content except via hashtags you post first.

Odd how I still get notifications from it despite removing the app ...

#FOMO is to blame for me giving all these a try. #CoSo is the best. ☺️

@GreenPaladin Found out because I was curious about that solo, tumbled down the rabbit hole past the musitron. Learned a lot today.
